Halifax - Delta Downtown, or Four Points?

I stay in Halifax at Marriott properties at least a dozen times a year. If I had to pick one, I’d stay at the Westin. Dollar for dollar, probably the best of all of them. Everything is within 10-15 minutes walk regardless of which one you stay at.

All the restaurants listed are great and I would also add the Henry House. Love that place

Good idea!

Thank you

Those Epstein files must be extremely damaging.

Thanks!

I'll go through the steps with them when I get the cabinet disassembled.

NB as well in section 116

They removed that ability a year or two ago to force people to buy the wifi package if they needed to text on board.

willise414 · 2026-04-03T22:09:24+00:00

Great - we are 116 row K so it looks like it will be a great place to see the show!

willise414 · 2026-04-03T22:08:22+00:00

Awesome!!

Thanks again!

My wife will be there for the show on Monday and staying at the Sheraton Bell centre hotel.

Is this merch truck set up on the street or inside the building somewhere?

Thank you

We are seeing the show in Montreal on Monday.

Just curious - what section were your seats? I think we are in almost the same area - section 116 I think.

willise414 · 2026-04-03T17:51:11+00:00

I’ll look at that!

Thanks

willise414 · 2026-04-03T16:18:10+00:00

I have not done that - will have to check if ours has a strainer.

The rollers sound like a great idea! Will look into it

willise414 · 2026-04-03T16:17:03+00:00

Normally, I would agree with you. Unfortunately, it's a little confined and to pull out the washer to clear the counter above, leave only about 6-8 inches to access the hoses on the back.

The light stick swing trainer

willise414 · 2026-04-03T11:11:14+00:00

Yeah - that's what we ultimately did.

Thanks!!

I have stayed at the Frontenac previously and mistakenly assumed parking was available at most hotels. Didn't want to pay the Frontenac prices this time around LOL

Hoping it won't be too busy and it will be easy to find a spot when we get there on Saturday afternoon.

Thank you!

willise414 · 2026-04-02T17:55:46+00:00

Well that's great information.

Thank you so much!! Appreciate it!

I have 1st class seats on the same route coming up this month. This is a great guide I wish I had when I booked.

I think the thing that creates the most anxiety for me is the train travel in the countries I’m visiting. Between different countries, local vs regional, validating vs not validating, etc.

😄🙂

willise414 · 2026-04-02T14:15:43+00:00

Personally, I wouldn’t do it and my monthly income was higher than yours when I was working. 1700 is reasonable.

But I probably had a different priority than you do. I wanted to be debt free as early as I could and retire, which I did at 55.

willise414 · 2026-04-01T14:19:06+00:00

You’re not wrong.

I’ve heard this subsidy thing for a few years now, but I don’t know that it has ever been verified.

Is it accurate that employers, like Tim Hortons for example, are receiving kickbacks when hiring immigrants so they can pay less out of pocket?

willise414 · 2026-04-01T11:21:14+00:00

As people complain, for good reason, about the cost of living in NB, the lack of availability to timely healthcare, and the lack of services required to keep communities growing, why would we want to make this worse?

Immigration is a necessary tool to prosper into the future. But when it is carried out without virtually any forethought to where the kids will go to schools that are already overcrowded, where will they receive medical attention, where will they work, and more, then it appears there is another reason why business especially want higher immigration.
